A female police officer who groped two colleagues at a drunken party has been sacked.

PC Pamela Pritchard, 29, thrust her hand into a male colleague's groin twice and later sat on his knee and kissed him, after drinking at a leaving do at Caernarfon Rugby Club, Gwynedd, in March 2024.

The North Wales Police officer also grabbed a female colleague's breasts after "twerking" on the dance floor, and later tried to kiss a senior colleague.

The panel at a misconduct hearing in Colwyn Bay, Conwy, found all the allegations against her were proven and that she had breached the force's standards of behaviour.

Do we know how the male police were dress ? I’m pretty sure they were dress provocatively. Did they think at how they will destroy the career of this female peace officer ? They’re selfish!

True, but I was under the impression that the comments about behavior were US related. Are British cops known to also act in that way?
